As I stepped out one morning In the springtime of the year I made my way down to the railway station To watch the trains go passing by Go and tell my sister not to do as I have done Go and tell my mother what has happened to her son Aaa...aah... In the springtime, in the springtime Aaa...aah...

In the springtime, in the springtime Aaa...aah... In the springtime of the year Aaa...aah... In the springtime, in the springtime Aaa...aah... In the springtime of the year...
